| Summary: | In 1 Cor 14.26-33a, the apostle Paul includes a few statements about the ordering of glossolalia (vv. 27-28) and prophecy (vv. 29-32) in his argument about spiritual gifts. There are a number of similarities between the instructions regarding glossolalia and prophecy. However, the use of distributive κατά in v. 27 over against v. 29 where such a preposition is missing, makes clear that prophecies may be uttered in front of the whole community, whereas, during the meeting, speaking in tongues should take place in separate and small groups of ‘two or at the most three people’ sitting together in order not to throw the whole assembly into disorder. |
